@Rickinnc says
For the first time in literally GENERATIONS, real wages are growing for the lower quintile of US workers. And they're growing FASTER under Biden than they did under Obama or Trump. For the first time in GENERATIONS, the lower half of workers are sharing in our economic growth!
There are more than 5,000,000 (FIVE MILLION) more people employed now than during the peak under Trump. Just read the graph.
And the number unemployed is historically low!
Inflation? The pandemic deflation was followed by worldwide inflation; that is now gone.
@Carla
Look at the economy,
Thanks, I did. Have you looked??For the first time in literally GENERATIONS, real wages are growing for the lower quintile of US workers. And they're growing FASTER under Biden than they did under Obama or Trump. For the first time in GENERATIONS, the lower half of workers are sharing in our economic growth!

@Rickinnc no one is pushing price control. Price gouging is a different issue.
I know from experience, food prices will not fall to pre pandemic levels. Packaging will not increase.
Corporate greed is what brought us to this point. These corporations are realizing record profits while you are struggling to buy burger.(not you specifically)

@Rickinnc DUUUDE!!!
The title in your link is "harris-price-gouging-ban." It's NOT price controls, it's a law against price gouging.
Also, you say

Many have come out of retirment due to inflation.
Do you have any evidence whatsoever for this claim? Note that I backed my statements with stats from the same sources Trump used to tout.

Hopefully it will sway the undecided voters over to Harris. Trump's cult will always be loyal to him and believe everything he says. She did trounce him handily, I just hope it has an impact.

@JimboSaturn oh Jimbo you’re totally missing the point. They are not the working ppl that Dems claim are on their side.
Hence you never see any Joe the Mechanic being excited about Dems because they are never near them. Only wealthy, popular ppl. Democrats are the best marketers I’ve ever seen, say they are for poor , under privileged , and working class yet continue to pass policies that keep them economically trapped…welfare which was supposed to help the poor get to the next level of income is now in its 4 generation of lifelong recipients. And poverty level is still the same.

@Rickinnc Well I wouldn't see Joe the mechanic because it's not news. Many average people vote democratic. Do you have any facts to back up your claim? Look at the facts presented by Elwood Blues. I deal in facts, not in "what I see" or how I feel.
Again like Trump, your are trying to make divisions in America, over race, income, education etc...

@JimboSaturn not news that hard working American across the country would vote for her? That would be the best news a campaign could ever have…not clueless celebrity endorsements.
Not trying to divide, just refuting that republicans are all about the wealthy only and democrats are all about helping ppl. All about helping themselves. Do you know over the last 5 years Nancy proviso has had a 45% return on her stock portfolio. I wish I had that, oops o don’t get to vote and sway businesses via legislation, aka insider trading ability.

Hmmmm. I wonder if we saw the same debate. Personally, I thought no one came out the victor. Least of all the American public. But I might be biased. That's what I expected going in.

If Trump is, so is the country

@Carla oh the old corporate greed and wealthy ppl arguement.
Why hasn’t Harris advocated to Biden all of her plans over the last 4 years if they will help those really really suffering. And she has plans? Sure wish she would share them with the rest of America. Only posted policy on her website the day before the debate…what is she waiting for?
And how in the world is she the nominee when she never got a single vote during primaries? What happened to of the people, for the people, BY THE PEOPLE? Somebody in the democratic machine just decided Joe has to go, Kamala we anoint you
Our nominee? We should all be very scared about our constitutional rights.

@Carla we have primaries so we the people can hear what platform a candidate is running on so we can best choose our presidential nominee. We still don’t know what she stands for cause there is so much history of flip flopping.
Kind of remind me of Pelosi telling congress several years ago that we have to pass the bill(law) so we can see what’s in it…elect Harris and then she’ll tell us what she’s going to do for the country.

Unfortunately no. His cult says he won the debate, because he said it was his best.
This is still a race.

No, not really. His supporters will support him and even those who despise him will support him because to do otherwise, it's political suicide.
It all comes down to the swing states. That is where this election will be won or lost.

I'm still 50/50 about that.
Ideally speaking, I'm one of a handful of people who wishes he would lose. (much to my delight)
But realistically, it's probable that he might win. (much to my dismay)

Anything on tv is fake lol, to divide everyone, have us arguing each other instead of actually seeing the truth of what’s really going on. 🙄
Expect movies and tv shows, they’ll put the truth hidden in plain sight.
